Pretty cringe, and if what I've seen at the top of university faculties is any indication, it's gonna be a shitshow. There's something to be said for at the very least the common working class man having a direct say in things, if not the deciding say in the things.

There's no modern historical indication that more degrees results in better governance.

Because nobody uses this cancer scam website lol.

If ever there was proof that this site doesn't do sarcasm, this comment being downvoted is it.

lol

EDIT: lmao even

Nothing in the FBI's letter was untrue.

MLK Jr watched a woman get raped, and encouraged the rapists while they were doing it.

"By bugging the room, they were able to listen in on King and at least 11 others participated in what the FBI memos describe as “an orgy” on Jan. 6, 1964.

The microphones also picked up activities from the night before, when Kearse, who died in 1991, allegedly sexually assaulted one of his parishioners. According to the memos, King was in the room. The handwritten note indicates that King didn’t just observe the assault – he laughed.

Worse, instead of trying to stop the incident, the memos say King apparently offered advice to the perpetrator, encouraging the abuse."

That sucks I guess but until there’s an alternative I don’t really care.

Not really impressive at all at this point. That dragon clip was pretty awful. If you told me this page was from 2024 I’d believe you.

This is kind of like Apple with the iPhone. You need 3 model products max. 3 is easily understood and people can be bothered (if they care) to track the difference. More than 3 is a mix of being redolent of ADHD (viz bad PR) while also being annoying for consumers to track the difference.

I can’t tell you the difference between the 10 different versions of the current iPhone and I can’t you the difference between the 5-6 different models put out by the Anthropics/OpenAIs of the world. At this point I just try to track the flagship and then the cheapest one or worst case I just use the flagship.

I’m sure internally there’s data showing people want choice and options but decision fatigue is of course very real.

Well you definitely missed that mark extremely badly here.

Yes please Europe - decouple from America. We are rooting for you!

Make sure you guys also make your own European-only version of the internet, too, so the rest of us (us as in the rest of the world) can stop seeing European-centric virtue signalling spam that none of us cares about. And make sure you pass bloc-wide legislation limiting all Europeans to using only that European version of the internet (this part is important).

Sincerely,

You weren’t under the embargo. End of story.

Nothing to apologise for.

Encapsulates enshittification in the current era really well, actually.

The lasting memory of these guys is how they refused to listen to their users. It was insane from the beginning how little they cared what their niche demographic even wanted. It got so bad so fast that after trying to get an invite and waiting a few months by the time I got invited it was already clearly a shit show and I didn’t even bother trialling it. The WeWork of browsers.

Yeah maybe. Too much blood flow to the wrong head.
